A successful parent is one who has loved, one who has sacrificed, and one who cared for, taught, and ministered to the needs of a child. Howard W. Hunter

Families are central to the father,s plan; families are the basic foundation of the Kingdom of God on earth. It is the family that we teach principles of righteousness. It is to our families that we turn for comfort and congratulations. Families bring us our deepest challenges and greatest joys. Elaine L. Jack

If our homes are to endure, parents and children must dedicate themselves to the gospels ideas that ensure preservation of home and family. Rex D. Pinegar

The need od families include righteous direction and the teaching, by example as well as precept, of basic principles of honesty, integrity, service, respect for that which we do in this life, not only to one another but also to the God of heaven, who is our Eternal Father. Gordon B. Hinckley

Home should be an anchor, a refuge, a happy place in which to dwell, a place where we are loved and where we can love. Home and family can be the center of one's earthly faith, whre love and mutual responsibility are appropriately blended. Home, with its pleasant and happy memories, can make us stronger during our days here upon the earth. Marvin J. Ashton
